What! I love the Dark Crystal and now they are making a sequal!? I am keeping my fingers crossed that they do everything old school with puppets and zero CG.
This is making me so excited I want to go home and have a Jim Henson-athon.

Boney M’s Christmas Album
One of my favourite Christmas albums. I’ve heard it every Christmas since I was little, only last year did I bother looking them up on youtube to finally see their sweet 70′s hair and outfits.

These Skinny Singers
Some of my favourite songs:
- Tender by Blur
- Return to Oz by Scissor Sisters *bonus Dark Crystal reference*
- The Man Who Sold the World by David Bowie
- So Real by Jeff Buckley
- I’m the Man Who Loves You by Wilco – okay, Jeff isn’t skinny but I still love him tremendously

Music Video’s from the 90′s
They were such a mess! More ‘symbolism’ than should properly fit into 3.5 minutes of video, a nauseating amount of camera effects, spectacular green screen work and Doc Martins. What more could you want?
Here are some for your viewing pleasure (try to watch them at home rather than work):
- Garbage – Push It
- The Cranberries – Salvation
- Nirvana – Heart Shaped Box
- Radiohead – Paranoid Android
- Bush – Glycerine
- A surprise!
